We improve the upper bounds of the following inequalities proved in [H. Alzer and N. Batir, Monotonicity properties of the gamma function, Appl. Math. Letters, 20(2007), 778-781]. \begin{equation*}…
This research article provides an unconditional proof of an inequality proposed by Srinivasa Ramanujan involving the Prime Counting Function $\pi(x)$, \begin{align*} (\pi(x))^{2}<\frac{ex}{\log x}\pi\left(\frac{x}{e}\right) \end{align*} for…
Numerical results based on an extended BPM algorithm indicate that, in Marcatili's lossless tapers and bends, through-flowing waves are drastically different from standing waves. The source of this surprising behavior is inherent in…
For the iterations of $x\mapsto |x-\theta|$ random functions with Lipschitz number one, we represent the dynamics as a Markov chain and prove its convergence under mild conditions. We also demonstrate that the Wasserstein metric of any two…
This paper is aimed at a detailed study of the multifractal analysis of the so-called divergence points in the system of $\beta$-expansions. More precisely, let $([0,1),T_{\beta})$ be the $\beta$-dynamical system for a general $\beta>1$ and…
Consider a Markov chain $\{X_n\}_{n\ge 0}$ with an ergodic probability measure $\pi$. Let $\Psi$ a function on the state space of the chain, with $\alpha$-tails with respect to $\pi$, $\alpha\in (0,2)$. We find sufficient conditions on the…
Elementary transformations of equations $A\psi=\lambda\psi$ are considered. The invertibility condition (Theorem 1) is established and similar transformations of Riccati equations in the case of second order differential operator $A$ are…
We study Markov processes associated with stochastic differential equations, whose non-linearities are gradients of convex functionals. We prove a general result of existence of such Markov processes and a priori estimates on the transition…
K. Igusa and G. Todorov introduced two functions $\phi$ and $\psi,$ which are natural and important homological measures generalising the notion of the projective dimension. These Igusa-Todorov functions have become into a powerful tool to…
Sufficient conditions are determined on the parameters such that the generalized and normalized Bessel function of the first kind and other related functions belong to subclasses of starlike and convex functions defined in the unit disk…
We provide conditions for the existence of measurable solutions to the equation $\xi(T\omega)=f(\omega,\xi(\omega))$, where $T:\Omega \rightarrow\Omega$ is an automorphism of the probability space $\Omega$ and $f(\omega,\cdot)$ is a…
For real $\xi$ we consider irrationality measure function $\psi_\xi (t) = \min_{1\le q \le t, \, q\in \mathbb{Z}} ||q\xi||$. We prove that in the case $\alpha \pm \beta \not\in \mathbb{Z}$ there exist arbitrary large values of $t$ with…
We study the exponential dissipation of entropic functionals for continuous time Markov chains and the associated convex Sobolev inequalities, including MLSI and Beckner inequalities. We propose a method that combines the Bakry \'Emery…
We introduce new zeta functions related to an endomorphism $\phi$ of a discrete group $\Gamma$. They are of two types: counting numbers of fixed ($\rho\sim \rho\circ\phi^n$) irreducible representations for iterations of $\phi$ from an…
We study stochastic monotonicity and propagation of order for Markov processes with respect to stochastic integral orders characterized by cones of functions satisfying $\Phi f \geq 0$ for some linear operator $\Phi$. We introduce a new…
We formulate a criterion for the existence of an invariant measure for a Feller semigroup defined on a metric space with the e-property for bounded continuous functions and use it to prove the asymptotic stability of a semigroup satisfying…
We propose several statistics to test the Markov hypothesis for $\beta$-mixing stationary processes sampled at discrete time intervals. Our tests are based on the Chapman--Kolmogorov equation. We establish the asymptotic null distributions…
Let $\{X_n\}_{n\ge0}$ be a $V$-geometrically ergodic Markov chain. Given some real-valued functional $F$, define $M_n(\alpha):=n^{-1}\sum_{k=1}^nF(\alpha,X_{k-1},X_k)$, $\alpha\in\mathcal{A}\subset \mathbb {R}$. Consider an $M$ estimator…
On a convex bounded open set, we prove that Poincar\'e-Sobolev constants for functions vanishing at the boundary can be bounded from below in terms of the norm of the distance function in a suitable Lebesgue space. This generalizes a result…
Iteration of randomly chosen quadratic maps defines a Markov process: X_{n+1}=\epsilon_{n+1}X_n(1-X_n), where \epsilon_n are i.i.d. with values in the parameter space [0,4] of quadratic maps F_{\theta}(x)=\theta x(1-x). Its study is of…
